Hey now, Liutenant O'Reilley was in at least a couple of original Star Trek episodes, and he was definitevely Irish :) Of course, he was "drunk" and singing and endangering the ship in one of 'em.... :/ But it's not the same thing! The whole ship was infected with a virus that made -everyone- act drunk! Heheheh... but no problem. Actually, I always thought that TNG episode with the farmers was Scotsmen, not Irishmen. If that was Irish, yeah, you got a point.

Uhh, they were wearing lots of green and brown, not plaid. Besides Scotland is known for raising sheep, not growing potatoes.

Liutenant O'Reilley didn't have an accent, indicating he was an American of Irish decent, not quite the same thing as Scotty with his Scottish accent,or Chekov with his Russian accent.

Now that I think of it there was nobody with an English accent. Picard was supposedly French but had a New English accent.
